A method is described for the detection of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase-expressing leukemic cells in ex vivo bone marrow samples. 4-Methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside is used as a substrate in a kinetic assay. D-Galactose is used to suppress endogenous lysosomal beta-galactosidase activity, yielding a sixfold increase in sensitivity. With this assay, the detection limit is one leukemic cell per 10(4) normal bone marrow cells.
描述了一种用于检测离体骨髓样本中表达大肠杆菌β-半乳糖苷酶的白血病细胞的方法。在动力学测定中使用4-甲基伞形酮基-β-D-吡喃半乳糖苷作为底物。用D-半乳糖抑制内源性溶酶体β-半乳糖苷酶活性,灵敏度提高了六倍。通过该测定,检测限为每10⁴个正常骨髓细胞中有一个白血病细胞。
